A guy told me since im using a macro line kit with co2 that it will blow up the macroline because the co2 is too cold.

is this true?

to an extent. the macroline will tend to blow because the co2 has a higher output pressure, not because of the cold. however, it will still be usable, and won't pop very often. besides, macro is cheap.

i have had 2 macro lines blow on me with co2... the first one hurt my ears lol.
well if you get the right stuff not the cheap **** i got you should be fine. just keep it out of the sun when your not using it.

Some people dont like macroline becuase it isn't made out of metal... Its just as safe.. If it wasn't they wouldn't be allowed to sell it.

Well the cold cold can make the line shrink a little and causing it loosen.they are not really designed for HP usethough.Now some people use them anyway with no probs.I had a macroine set up with Co2 and it would leak and then I would replace the line and it be ok.Then after a week it would leak again it got to point that I grew tired of it leaking all the time.So I said **** it and went and bought a couple of paht elbows and some stainless line.I have never had any leaks and now I am using HPA and still wont use macroline.

if thats all thats keeping you from geting it, dont worry about it, nothing bad is going to happen, If it does blow, simply get another piece.

I don't think you'll have a problem. I've used it for years with CO2 without a problem. The fittings leak every once in a while but I'm sure it is from the O rings inside them drying out, since it will stop leaking if I tap it.

Macroline might break if you take a bad dive or drop your marker, but other than that you should have no problems.
